His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Aaron and Zach worked together?

How on earth could these two, who seemingly had nothing in common, have financial dealings?

Dillon had a few theories.

"Maybe Zach has some side hustle and teamed up with Aaron on the down-low. Or maybe they're working together on something, trading favors for mutual benefits."

Given the small amount of money involved, it couldn't be a major business deal.

"I think the only thing that could connect those two is Eliza."

On the surface, both Aaron and Zach seemed pretty into Eliza. By normal logic, they'd be love rivals.
